Senior Housing, Flooding on Agenda for Sustainability Meeting

The July 17 meeting is the second in a series of discussions about improving sustainability in Mid-County. People with ties to Maplewood, Brentwood and other nearby cities also are participating.

 

Clayton will host the second meeting in a series about improving sustainability in Mid-County on July 17.

At a kickoff discussion in March, participants discussed what they like about transportation, development and other attributes of the Mid-County area. They also shared changes they would like to see implemented.

The sessions sponsored by the East-West Gateway Council of Governments are targeted at people who live, work or play in Clayton, Richmond Heights, Maplewood, Brentwood and Shrewsbury, though anyone is welcome to attend.

The July 17 meeting runs from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in meeting rooms A and B at The Center of Clayton. Attendees will be asked how St. Louis should address the following issues:

  • Creating more housing options for seniors
  • Improving coordination between cities
  • Addressing flooding and stormwater issues
  • Improving access to public transit and pedestrian and biking options

Pre-registration may be made online. Doors will open at 6 p.m.

Let's face facts - we know there will be more congestion. It already is at it's present location. This may be an advantage for QT with a newer more up-to-date facility. BUT do we want this for our community and have the HIGH RISk of putting our students in danger? This would be a grave mistake no only for the congestion but students will be leaving the campus during school hours to get a "snack" at QT??? The snack might even be something that is not legal for minors "ALCOHOL". Why take such a HIGH RISK when our children's interest are at stake. A VERY CONCERNED GRANDPARENT
